Is your ARM7 also an ARM710 in a RiscPC?

This is just speculation, but maybe some tools in Debian-ARM were
miscompiled in subtle ways (all these pre-SA<=>SA alignment issues
spring to mind), or compiled by different sources with slightly
different configurations?

Has it been a while since gzip was last built? (Given that upstream
hardly changes anymore, I'd guess that's the case.) If yes, I could
try out a freshly compiled version.

Any other ideas anyone?

Cheers,

  Richard
